Each simian had a much different body suit, so besides trying to define class across species, there was a definite attempt to dress each group in different styles.

Costumes are the first impression that you have of the character before they open their mouth-it really does establish who they are.

The whole switch from film to digital has changed some of the ways I use color and the juxtaposition of light and dark. It's getting better with digital, the separation's gotten better, but I still feel like it's really flatter than film, so I do a lot of screening and subtle textural printing and painting on clothes for film to get it not to look flat.

I always carry pictures of my children and grandchildren, which is what makes it all worthwhile. It's great fun that my grandkids get to see the costumes in Alice in Wonderland or a doll with grandma's dress.

I love Johnny (Depp). A lot of the stuff I've done for him stands out for me just because of the relationship and who he is.

I think what's fun about the fairytales is just seeing what everybody interprets them as, which comes from the different directors and what they want to do with them.

I've always loved movies, art and clothes.
